“Well, the first thing I will do as President is sign the Freedom of Choice Act.”-In answering this question by: "Dessa Cosma: Um, as you were talking about earlier, the recent Bush Supreme Court’s decision really took away critically important decisions from women and put them in the hands of politicians. And as a result of this, we’re expecting, and have already seen, so much anti-choice legislation at the state level. Um, what would you do at the federal level not only to ensure access to abortion but to make sure that the judicial nominees that you will inevitably be able to pick are true to the core tenets of Roe v. Wade?"

The above speech transcribed-"..see young women who are Ariana’s age and younger, and I think about my own two daughters, Sasha and Malia, and sometimes it makes me stop and makes me wonder: what kind of America will our daughters grow up in?"-Obama

Bush for Values Voter contrast

"On January 29, 2001, President George W. Bush signed the first two Executive Orders of his Administration"-"creating the White House Office of Faith-Based and Community Initiatives...George W. Bush promised in his first major policy speech as a Presidential candidate, on July 22, 1999, "In every instance where my Administration sees a responsibility to help people, we will look first to faith-based organizations, to charities, and to community groups.""

Mrs. Bush's Remarks at White House Conference on Faith-Based and Community Initiatives-"Here in New Orleans, this strength was seen by the overwhelming response to Hurricane Katrina. Americans contributed over $2.5 billion* in private resources to the recovery effort after the storm....President Bush launched the Faith-Based and Community Initiative in 2001 because he recognized that the spirit of compassion that our citizens have is our very asset when it comes to meeting community needs...Hurricane Katrina damaged or destroyed hundreds of schools in the Gulf region, leaving thousands of students displaced...Around 40 percent of these schools are charter schools, which provide greater flexibility and accountability than traditional public schools. New Orleans has the highest percentage of charter schools than any other city in the United States. "

McCain for Values Voter contrast

Human Dignity and the Sanctity of Life-"John McCain believes Roe v. Wade is a flawed decision that must be overturned, and as president he will nominate judges who understand that courts should not be in the business of legislating from the bench....As John McCain has publicly noted, "At its core, abortion is a human tragedy. To effect meaningful change, we must engage the debate at a human level"...As president, motivated by his personal experience, John McCain will seek ways to promote adoption as a first option for women struggling with a crisis pregnancy. In the past, he cosponsored legislation to prohibit discrimination against families with adopted children, to provide adoption education, and to permit tax deductions for qualified adoption expenses, as well as to remove barriers to interracial and inter-ethnic adoptions."
